While brushing her teeth, Wu Mangmang looked at her dog-chewed short hair in the mirror and couldn’t help slowing down her brushing motions.

The problem with her brain was getting more and more outrageous. She had kept her black straight hair for so many years, but it was ruined on just one Singles’ Day.

And short hair was something that unless you had a stylist living in your house, it was best not to touch. When freshly blow-dried, it was indeed pure and cute, but after sleeping it could become a bird’s nest, and after rubbing it a couple times it looked like it had been chewed by a dog.

Wu Mangmang soaked herself in the bathtub, extremely reluctantly recalling the events of the evening. It was truly a typical case of “if you don’t court death, you won’t die.”

Lu Sui’s demeanor tonight was really good. He didn’t publicly yell “psycho” at her, which showed his excellent upbringing.

Apart from closing his eyes for a moment of “out of sight, out of mind,” although Lu Sui didn’t say a harsh word to her afterward, Wu Mangmang felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart.

It was probably this kind of mentality.

Her ex-boyfriends would have yelled at her for being a snake demon when encountering such things, and Wu Mangmang’s usual approach was to refuse to admit it and yell back, saying that men without any sense of humor might as well be dead.

Those men with hearts as small as pinpricks – could they really expect to match with genuine rich beautiful women?

Even she, this snake demon, looked down on them.

But when encountering tolerant types like Lu Sui, Wu Mangmang began self-reflection instead, always feeling she was unworthy of Lu Sui’s tolerance.

She felt anxious that one day Lu Sui would no longer tolerate her like this.

Nothing remained unchanged.

That person back then had dared to block knives for her, his right hand even becoming disabled and unable to exert strength because of it, but in the end didn’t he also leave without looking back?

But the only difference was that she wasn’t sick yet at that time, or rather, hadn’t had an episode yet.

So whether she was good or bad, everyone would still let go of her for various reasons.

Then rather than being a painfully lucid person, there was nothing wrong with being her current self.

It was just that tonight, because of Lu Sui’s attitude, Wu Mangmang suddenly felt somewhat guilty, guilty that she wasn’t worthy of his kindness.

She felt that tonight’s version of herself was childish and idiotic. Even now thinking about it, she couldn’t help covering her face with both hands, but at the time she had actually felt both excited and thrilled, completely unable to stop herself.

“Oh.” Wu Mangmang wailed and submerged her entire body underwater. Gradually, the familiar feeling of suffocation came over her. She enjoyed the moment between life and death for a while, then suddenly surfaced, gasping for breath.

For others, this might seem terrifying, but for Wu Mangmang, this was just a game she was used to.

Once she hadn’t controlled the technique well, and fortunately the maid at home discovered her in time, otherwise Wu Mangmang would have gone to heaven long ago.

If not for this, Ms. Liu wouldn’t have swallowed her pride to send her to see a psychologist.

Wu Mangmang wiped the water from her face, feeling that she was really being pretentious.

There were countless people in the world who were worse off than her, and others didn’t talk about wanting to die. Here she was, well-fed and well-clothed, with both parents alive, no mortgage, a respectable job, and currently a boyfriend with excellent qualities, yet she had thoughts of seeking death?

It was simply courting death.

But humans were just this kind of death-courting animals.

When survival was no longer an issue, they felt they should be above animals, different from beasts, and began pursuing emotions and ideals, demanding respect and love, discussing the meaning of life.

To put it bluntly, if Wu Mangmang had lived in a family struggling for survival, these mental ailments wouldn’t have become problems at all, because she wouldn’t have had time for melancholy.

So rich people had too many problems.

Wu Mangmang walked naked out of the bathtub, admiring her young body that was glowing with the pink radiance of just having bathed in the mirror, and said, “Just a stinking skin bag, a coward who wants to die but doesn’t dare!”

Wu Mangmang pulled over a nearby bath towel to wrap around her body, changed her tone and said again, “I’m not a coward. Some deaths are lighter than feathers, some heavier than Mount Tai.”

If she died like this now, forget about going to heaven, probably no one in the world would shed a few tears for her.

Boss Wu and Ms. Liu would probably angrily scold her for wasting food and being a tormentor.

Wu Dandan might cry a couple of times.

Lu Sui would probably be troubled about having to deal with the police. In situations where girlfriends died mysteriously, boyfriends were the first to be suspected.

As for netizens, they would probably guess whether she had been in a car accident.

In any case, no one would remember her ten years later.

Wu Mangmang certainly didn’t want to die like this.

Her desire to pursue graduate studies wasn’t a sudden whim. She just felt she had some talent in this area, and with effort, she might be able to become an expert.

If she died someday in the future, hopefully someone would say: The passing of Wu So-and-so is a major loss to our antique restoration field.

Then she could rest in peace.

Otherwise, she could also become a perverted female killer, so that when police academies taught case studies in the future, they would always mention her for psychological analysis.

Based on these two points, Wu Mangmang spent her entire weekend time buried in graduate entrance exam materials.

When tired of studying, she would flip through an Agatha Christie mystery novel, like “Murder on the Orient Express.”

Unfortunately, the era was too long ago. With modern investigative methods, where would they need Detective Poirot?

So Wu Mangmang switched to reading Keigo Higashino instead.

When Lu Sui came home from business entertainment in the evening, he walked to the door of the side hall and saw Wu Mangmang sitting inside, scratching her head with her pen while buried in her books. It really gave him the feeling of raising a daughter.

The little girl had probably encountered a difficult problem, having just finished scratching her hair and now biting the pen tip in her mouth.

After finally putting down the pen, she flipped through the book to the end with a rustling sound.

She was probably checking answers.

Lu Sui could clearly read “What kind of ghost answer is this” on Wu Mangmang’s face.

“Want to take the graduate entrance exam?”

Wu Mangmang was so focused on doing problems that she only reacted when she heard Lu Sui’s voice and felt him hugging her from behind.

“You’ve been drinking?” Wu Mangmang wrinkled her nose.

“Mm.” Lu Sui half-released Wu Mangmang and loosened his collar.

Wu Mangmang instinctively felt that Lu Sui’s attitude tonight was wrong. Alcohol was the matchmaker of lust.

Lu Sui’s appearance made a word instantly pop into Wu Mangmang’s mind.

Seductive.

Wu Mangmang tried not to startle the snake and said, “Graduate entrance exams are really too difficult. English is still okay.” Which high-level blogger couldn’t show off a few English sentences?

“But are the people who write political questions really human?” Wu Mangmang got every multiple choice question wrong, completely unable to understand the bizarre thinking of the question writers.

Lu Sui took the mineral water Peter handed him and took a sip. “Stop scratching your head. I’ll have someone get you a tutor tomorrow.”

Lu Sui sat beside Wu Mangmang. “What school do you want to apply to? Have you contacted an advisor?”

Look at this – this was an efficient person who had already taken control of the initiative in an instant.

Wu Mangmang bit her pen tip and looked at Lu Sui, hesitantly saying, “I want to apply to A University. My uncle is quite familiar with professors there, and I’ve already gotten the professional exam questions.”

Her hesitation was because A University wasn’t in this city.

“Your major is indeed strongest at A University,” Lu Sui said.

Wu Mangmang carefully observed Lu Sui’s expression. This person seemed not to mind at all that A University wasn’t in this city.

This was absolutely not normal. Was he unconcerned? Or was he too concerned, so he didn’t want to startle the snake either?

Wu Mangmang thought while slowly packing up her books and stationery.

Lu Sui watched with amusement as Wu Mangmang put her pen into the pencil case.

A pink little rabbit pencil case – was she addicted to acting?

“I’m going upstairs. I studied all day and I’m really tired.” Wu Mangmang even yawned for authenticity.

“Mm, what a pity. I was planning to give you the prize I owe you tonight.” Lu Sui looked at Wu Mangmang, who was holding her books to her chest in a defensive posture.

Could people be this cunning?!

Everyone was adults, so how could Wu Mangmang not understand Lu Sui’s meaning?

This must be a version of “there’s no such thing as a free lunch.”

But they were all creatures of desire anyway, and it would have to happen sooner or later. Wu Mangmang wasn’t being pretentious.

If she could exchange it for photos of Lu Sui’s abs, it wouldn’t be a loss.

After all, Lu Sui would be the one doing all the work.

“I’ll bring the camera to your room to find you later,” Wu Mangmang said.

“Mm.” Lu Sui smiled and didn’t move, as if afraid Wu Mangmang would change her mind.

Wu Mangmang waved her hand. “You should go take a shower quickly.”

Wasn’t this obvious enough?

Back in her room, Wu Mangmang took a beautiful bath and quickly applied a face mask.

She wanted to change into sexy pajamas, but they really didn’t match her hairstyle.

Wu Mangmang had to dig out a lively and cute pink bunny hooded fleece from her closet, with two long bunny ears hanging down from the hood, cute to the point of being adorable.

She couldn’t find suitable bottoms for a moment, so Wu Mangmang could only randomly put on a pair of tiny hot pants.

The hem of the bunny top just reached her thigh roots, hiding the hot pants, but when she raised her hands, the pants could be seen.

After dressing up, Wu Mangmang took out her DSLR camera to check the battery, ensuring everything was perfect before going across to knock on the door.

Lu Sui had apparently just showered too, having changed into jeans and a white T-shirt, looking several years younger. His naturally refined and noble temperament completely blurred the boundaries of age.

Actually, Lu Sui himself really wasn’t old, but Wu Mangmang liked to silently remind herself he was an old man. As Lu Sui had said, she was just looking for a sense of superiority.

Now when Wu Mangmang saw the abs faintly visible under Lu Sui’s fitted T-shirt, she couldn’t help swallowing, feeling a bit scared.

And Lu Sui’s eyes, after sweeping over Wu Mangmang’s bunny ears, directly moved to the main point.

Wu Mangmang pouted and lifted her bunny top with both hands. “I’m wearing pants.”

Although wearing them was almost like not wearing them, the confidence was completely different.

Lu Sui stepped aside, and Wu Mangmang walked in wearing bunny head slippers.

She turned around to see Lu Sui taking off his T-shirt.

“What, what are you doing?” Wu Mangmang stuttered a bit.

“Didn’t you say we were photographing abs?” Lu Sui asked back.

“Ah, oh.” Wu Mangmang finally reacted, mentally complaining that Lu Sui was too direct, not giving people any psychological preparation.

Wu Mangmang lowered her head, fiddling with the camera to hide the redness on her face.

It wasn’t that she hadn’t seen the world, but mainly the V-lines extending deep into his jeans were irresistible, making her unable to help but think wild thoughts.

“How should I pose?” Lu Sui asked.

Only then did Wu Mangmang discover that Mr. Lu, who was rich enough to do anything, actually didn’t know how to pose at all.

Wu Mangmang said with a red face and lowered head, “Just do whatever.”

With his handsome looks and beautiful figure, he was a natural clothes hanger who wasn’t afraid of cameras. He really looked good no matter how he was photographed.

Honestly, knowing how to pose was really a powerful ability.

Mr. Lu naturally didn’t need to pose – just standing there was magazine cover material.

Wu Mangmang snapped several photos with rapid-fire flashes, then suddenly said “Ah!” and “Almost forgot.”

Wu Mangmang walked toward Lu Sui, reaching her hand to his belt buckle, looking up at Lu Sui and saying, “In our agreement, you’re not allowed to have any buckles fastened.”

Lu Sui grabbed Wu Mangmang’s hand. “Don’t cause trouble.”

But even though he said this, everything was already too late.

Wu Mangmang hadn’t even unbuckled anything yet, but something had already grown impatient with loneliness.

As a woman, Wu Mangmang couldn’t understand this kind of instant combustion trait of men.

But women at these times always developed a kind of superiority-tinged pride, both proud of their own enormous charm and proud of being more completely evolved than men.

Wu Mangmang was no exception, but when people were proud, they easily lost their guard. When she was heavily thrown onto the bed, Lu Sui had already covered her.

The next second Wu Mangmang’s lips were sealed, obviously Lu Sui had learned from last time’s experience and resolutely didn’t give Wu Mangmang a chance to speak.

Once the mood was broken, there was no way to continue.

“I think I might not be able to respect your principles,” Lu Sui said beside Wu Mangmang’s ear, his voice low and husky, exciting her skin as if a string of electric sparks had run underneath it.

Men really deserved to be called two-part animals.

The upper body gently spoke sweet words to comfort you, treating you like Japanese tofu, afraid you’d melt if he breathed on you.

But the lower body was domineeringly forceful, not allowing you to retreat. In just a moment, Wu Mangmang felt she had become meat on a chopping board.

It was just that Lu Sui was somewhat urgent, his kisses falling more and more densely.

Wu Mangmang was dizzy with her soul floating three thousand miles away. Only when she felt a coolness on her body did she come back to her senses a bit.

It turned out Lu Sui had slightly retreated to take off his own clothes.

Wu Mangmang only looked once before being scared silly.

Although she hadn’t eaten pork, her scientific knowledge in this area was quite comprehensive. Lu Sui’s was obviously oversized.

Wu Mangmang couldn’t help backing away a bit, but Lu Sui quickly pressed forward again.

Although announcing that she was a virgin at this moment seemed a bit like hanging up a sign to sell herself, Wu Mangmang felt it was better to say it: “I, I’m still a virgin.”

The point was, you’d better be gentle, or better yet, be more prepared.

Wu Mangmang felt Lu Sui’s movements obviously pause, his body immediately leaving hers. She could hear Lu Sui breathing rapidly a few times, then he rolled over and got off the bed.

Wu Mangmang scrambled up, pulling the blanket to cover herself, not understanding Lu Sui’s meaning.

Lu Sui put on his pants and turned around. “Sorry, we should be more careful about this.”

Although Wu Mangmang felt the change was a bit sudden, as a girl, she couldn’t very well throw herself at a man when he said they should be careful, could she?
